Not highjack your post but this happen to us today.

We have a 2019 3791. Today when we arrived at the campsite the water pump was running, but no water on the output. The tank was 1/2 full. Worked the valves to check that none were not working. Cleaned it. Then I took the pump apart. Seeing nothing that looked wrong, put it back together. The pump is now working. Any ideas.

I intend to purchase a new one to have when this one messes up again.

I’ll take a stab at this. You left the pump on and it picked up air when the pressure went down. All the faucets were closed and it kept on running because it couldn’t pump any water. The pump had air in it instead of water. I’ve had this happen. All you needed to do was cut the pump off a few seconds then cut it back on.

I tryed that also.

I took the pump apart looking for anything that may have been picked up by the pump. Reinstalled the pump. It's now working.

I have ordered a replacement. Will keep it handy in case the old one acts up again.

Thanks for the help.
